Town of Colchester Public Works Department Takes Top Spots in the
Technology Transfer Expo Safety Challenge
On September 16, 2009, the Technology Transfer Center and the Connecticut Highway Street Supervisors Association (CHSSA) held the 8th annual Technology Transfer Expo at the University of Connecticut in Storrs.
Each year representatives from local municipal agencies participate in the Dr. Jack Stephens Memorial Safety Challenge. This competition gives public works employees the opportunity to demonstrate high levels of proficiency in many safety related skills including Work Zone Safety, Flagger Techniques, Trenching and Excavation, Personal Protective Equipment, Sweeper Operation and Backhoe Operation.
For the Town of Colchester, it was a great day, not only did their public works employees demonstrate their knowledge in all of these areas, they also won all three of the top spots. The winners were:
Ray Sikorski, Town of Colchester – Public Works
Patrick Clark, Town of Colchester – Public Works
Chuck Zingle, Town of Colchester – Public Works
Congratulations to the Town of Colchester!
